I’ve been a nurse for 15 years?

June 27, 2007 by Tricia

I was just thinking, it was around this time 15 years ago that I finally finished my nursing course. Wow, I’ve been a nurse for 15 years. It doesn’t seem that long!

I guess I should have happy memories of that time, but it was a little stressful. You see, just as I finished my course and began my new nursing career my husband went back to school. So here I was, a young nurse just building a career with student loans to pay off and I’d also become the breadwinner for the household since my husband went back to school.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure when I was going to school and my husband was the only one working it was hard on him too … but he wasn’t in a new career. At least he had that going for him.

When Chris finished his course I was still paying off my student loans. We then had to start paying off his too. His were higher than mine because he’d gone to a private school for an IT course. In fact I’d say his student loans were about 10 times mine! I’d had a couple of scholarships too so that helped keep mine reasonable, but still, our loans together were a heck of a lot of money.

We struggled through the payments. I never realized that we could have applied for a school loan consolidation. If we had we more than likely would have ended up reducing our total monthly payment and saving money because there’d be less interest on our total as we payed what we owed each month.

Well I guess you could say we learned our lesson the hard way. Now that I know you can consolidate student loans I”ll certainly be telling others that appear to be struggling to pay off their loans as they start out in their new careers.

A new life insurance policy

June 27, 2007 by Tricia

My husband and I have been thinking of getting a new life insurance policy.

We aren’t all that satisfied with the rates that our current life insurance company charges so I thought I’d look around and see if there was another company that we’d find more suitable.

I found a company that has extraordinary rates and coverage – globe life insurance, but I’m not sure if it’s just for Americans. I guess I’ll have to contact the company to find out.

If you know of a good life insurance company that has plans for Canadians I’d love to hear about it.

A rental condo or home is so much better!

June 25, 2007 by Tricia

I love the idea of staying in a villa or rental home when I travel. Perhaps that’s because when I traveled as a child with my parents we always stayed in rental cabins, hotels or motels with dinettes, or rental homes.

It’s just so much nicer. You can relax, cook your own food, do your own laundry if you really want to … yes, much better than staying in stuffy hotel room.

Now, having told you my preference for vacationing I’d like to tell you about Rocky Point condo rentals in beautiful Puerto Penasco Mexico.

Imagine staying in a Oceano-Rentals rental home or condo with an ocean front view? All their rentals are furnished with satellite TV’s, internet access, fully equipped kitchens, and furnishings.

Rocky Point is located near the Sea of Cortez, a beautiful peaceful area to spend your holiday. Check it out if you are planning a vacation in Mexico.

Airbrush Tattoo Supplies and Equipment

June 25, 2007 by Tricia

If you’re a tattoo airbrush artist or perhaps someone who’s always wanted to be you should have a look at all the products being sold at the Tat Store.

They have everything from stencil airbrush, power palettes, hobby kits, ink, banners, Glitter tattoos, body crystals, airbrush tanning supplies and all of the airbrush tattoo equipment that you could possibly need to either get started or expand your business.

The Temporary Airbrush Tattoo store or TAT as it’s known has been the industry leader in providing supplies for the temporary airbrush tattoo industry.

If I were interested in getting a small business started doing temporary airbrush tattoos I’d purchase one of the three starter kits that they sell as they look like they’re the best way to get a start with temporary airbrush tattoos.

Messy Garage? Get organized

June 24, 2007 by Tricia

If you have a garage attached to your house you might appreciate the many products that are being sold at Carguygarage.com. You know how almost ever garage gets disorganized at some point? Well this site sells all the latest products in garage organization amongst many other items.

If your garage is so full that you can barely fit your car inside you’d better take a look at this site. They have everything from racks that will allow you to hang bikes from the wall, to cabinets and workbenches for those that use their garage as a workplace, or to store their tools.

We don’t actually have a garage. We barely even have a driveway! You can’t drive down our driveway … it’s only 10 feet or so wide and we only own half the driveway.

Even so, there are still items on this site that I would purchase such as the garden hose and cord reels. I mean, I’m a gardening nut and I hate having my hose just lying in a tangled pile! One of the hose reels even has four wheels on it so you could push your whole hose out to where you need to use it! I like that.

Check out the site. I’m sure you’ll find some products that will help you get your garage organized.
